On March 10, 2006, Ed Lucas was married for the second time in his long and fascinating life. His marriage was notable not because he was a blind sportswriter in his sixties who had made a living describing sports to the masses, but because it happened on home plate at Yankee Stadium. A sportswriting giant who sits in three different Halls of Fame, Lucas' career stretches back to the 1960s, and his life illustrates that determination makes everything possible.
